Another variation on a theme...

Take the previous word and add another word after it. Makes sense? No, not really, I hear you say but...

THE LAST TWO OR THREE LETTERS OF THE EXISTING WORD PLUS THE FIRST TWO OR THREE LETTERS OF THE NEW WORD MUST ALSO MAKE A WORD THEMSELVES.

So...

Want to try?

EDIT:
In the event that a word using the last two or three letters cannot be created, A genuine place name such as a town, village, district, etc, may be substituted.
ACRONYMS may NOT be used unless they are accepted by the OED as in everyday use, such as SCUBA

I think you misunderstood, Missy.
You should have continued with sonNET

Now don't forget, you can use the last 2 or 3 letters to make a word with the first 2 or 3 letters of the new word to make a 4, 5 or 6 letter connection.

It is arrange and ode, together they form geode but I can’t get the bold to work.
